There is a lot of development data out there. But how do we translate this information into better development decisions--and better outcomes?
This event, convened by the development nonprofit TechnoServe, in collaboration with the Center for Global Development, will explore some of the key questions that affect billions of aid dollars: How do we compare cost-effectiveness across a wide spectrum of projects? What would development look like if long-term impact studies were a part of every project design? How do we leverage rigorous findings of impact to scale successful projects?
Join us for a morning of lively panel discussions and a debate-style session, as we explore how to use evidence to create better policy and transform the prospects of the world’s poor.
The detailed agenda can be found here.
